Summary
Ted would be the first one to admit that he didn't know a darned thing about football when he arrived at Richmond. So no, he was not at all prepared for the awful, horrifying truth he discovered: that football clubs were allowed to keep some of their players as indentured servants -- slaves, to be more accurate. He wasn't prepared to take on a tradition that allowed for physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, all in the name of winning football matches.
As for Colin and Jamie, who were both sold as indentured servants when they were kids and have barely survived since then, they long ago learned not to trust anyone but each other. Especially not with an owner like Rupert Mannion, who's been happily abusing his authority over them for years. They know better than to believe anyone will help them.
Luckily, Ted believes enough for all of them. But he's got his work cut out for him, because a system that will accept human trafficking in exchange for football excellence is not one that will change easily...

The Gold-shackled Singer, or the story of Erasmus and Kallias by Fragiledewdrop

Summary
When slavery is abolished in Patras, Erasmus becomes a poet.
"When he looked in the mirror, back in his rooms, he saw himself as what he had once been supposed to become: a royal slave, a living work of art, breathtaking and unattainable, skilled and delightfully submissive. But then he noticed the subtle cracks in that perfect picture, the flaws that were the result of a life fully lived: the calluses on his hands ; the jagged scars on his legs; the strong calves, and the feet that had walked thousands of miles; the scuff marks on his shackles, their gold no longer unblemished; the lack of a collar; the shadows hidden behind his eyes.
The figure before him was no slave, he thought.
That was a man.
That was simply Erasmus."

Summary
REWRITE OF "HEBO ESTEL (HAVE HOPE)"
Boromir is in Rivendell by order of his father, and he is not exactly thrilled to be there. His first night in Rivendell, one of the Elves returns an important possession that he unknowingly lost. Despite Elrond's warning to stay away from her, Boromir finds that he cannot abide by his host's wishes. Instead, he endeavors to discover what makes the Elf-maid so threatening, and along the way, something that he believed to be locked inside his heart awakens.
Just as something that Boromir thought he would never have—or want—begins to take form, the Fellowship departs for Mordor. The journey South tests the Fellowship's resolve and forces them to struggle with the burdens of pain, suffering and loss, and Boromir is pulled in two directions. The moment comes where he must choose between carrying out his father's orders and bringing the One Ring back to Minas Tirith—no matter the cost—or helping to destroy the last hope his people have so that he can be with the one he loves.
